RoboScore
62.89 RoboScore + 5.17 Momentum· Strong evidence
Products 65%, Depth 5%, Evidence 30% set the number, and every rated company has all three. Attention has no weight of its own — it is one of the two things Evidence is built from, and it can only ever add. Activity and Readiness describe the brand but never move it. A value we don't have reads —, never zero. Momentum is independently collected news coverage, worth at most 15 points and never a deduction — a maker we have heard nothing about keeps its full RoboScore. Claiming or paying moves nothing.

A board total ranks makers within one category. It is built from the best robot's RoboScore, a capped credit for more ranked robots, and news. It is not this company's RoboIndex above. How boards work

In the news

Why Bear Robotics has been in the news, across 10 outlets — collected and classified independently, so a maker cannot add to it. It never changes a robot's RoboScore — the evidence half of the RoboIndex — and it can move a robot up a board by at most 15 points.
Public loss record
US makers file into registers that compel reporting — device adverse events to the FDA, driverless crashes to NHTSA, workplace deaths to OSHA. A maker with no record here has genuinely not had one filed against it.
A filing records that someone reported something. It is not a finding that the robot caused it, and we make no such finding.
